As you say, IPv6 is turning 20, and it's been mandatory for a long time, so it is a must nowadays anyway, but ok, I have added it in the description. Samuel

The description should mention which version of IP is supported. While IPv6 support has been mandatory for a decade, IPv6 not being mentioned suggests (at least to me) that only the legacy IPv4 protocol is supported. Greetings Marc -- -- !!

Bug#884641: ITP: lwip -- small implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite
Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Samuel Thibault * Package name: lwip Version : 2.0.3 Upstream Author : Adam Dunkels Leon Woestenberg * URL : http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/lwip/ * License : BSD Programming Lang: C Description : small independent implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite lwIP is a small independent implementation of the TCP/IP protocol suite that has been developed by Adam Dunkels at the Computer and Networks Architectures (CNA) lab at the Swedish Institute of Computer Science (SICS). The focus of the lwIP TCP/IP implementation is to reduce the RAM usage while still having a full scale TCP. This making lwIP suitable for use in embedded systems with tens of kilobytes of free RAM and room for around 40 kilobytes of code ROM. It can be used as a maintained user-land TCP/IP stack.
